White men ... that is the common denominator in the gun problem.

[Srkdqltr]

As I see it, white men are the ones who do this sort of thing. We should control white men??? You think??

1. They can't jump...

Now that's out of the way... regarding the OP:

[Lochloosa]

2. There is a point to this thread?

[Hekate]

3. Bye

[LonePirate]

4. Guns would be the other common denominator.

[Stallion]

7. BINGO!!!

[wasupaloopa]

5. Just stop it! White men do not go around shooting people.

What is it with this board. “NRA members take innocent lives” “white men shoot people.”

All this drama queen bull shit is not solving anything.

Geez I’ve been blocked from the anti gun forum for saying NRA members do not shoot innocent people.

A forum like that isn’t worth taking part in.

16. Then

stay away.

[stopbush]

6. That...and guns.

[Hekate]

8. No other country on the planet does this & many are full of "white men."

The common denominator is GUNS.

In before the Lock. I hope.

[Srkdqltr]

12. That makes all the difference??

[Stinky The Clown]

9. Actually, GUNS are the common denominator.

[Srkdqltr]

11. Guns in the hands of men.

[Stinky The Clown]

23. No guns and the men are impotent.

[Srkdqltr]

10. The men with the guns do these mass killings.

You can't dispute that. So the prob is...... men and guns.

[ooky]

19. So, probably easier to get rid of the guns then to get rid of the men.

[Srkdqltr]

20. I hope so. Men in general are cool.

Just the gun guys are scary.

[Calculating]

13. this thread seems kinda racist

just sayin

[Srkdqltr]

14. Lol

[Srkdqltr]

21. So.. guns are a race now?? Just asking.

[X_Digger]

15. Men, perhaps, but not just white men..

From Mother Jones' spreadhseet on mass shootings-
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1b9o6uDO18sLxBqPwl_Gh9bnhW-ev_dABH83M5Vb5L8o/htmlview?sle=true#gid=0
Number of shooters by race:
Total: 115
White : 65
Black : 20
Latino : 10
Asian : 8
Native American : 3
Other (which seems to be mixed, unknown, or multiple shooters) : 6

From https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/table/US/PST045218
US breakdown by race:
White alone, percent : 76.5%
Black or African American alone, percent(a) : 13.4%
American Indian and Alaska Native alone, percent(a) : 1.3%
Asian alone, percent(a) : 5.9%

65/115 = 56% of shooters are white
20/115 = 17% of shooters are black
10/115 = 8.7% of shooters are latino
8/115 = 7% of shooters are asian
3/115 = 2.6% of shooters are native american

[Srkdqltr]

17. Ok all men.

But... 65 white verses 20 black sort of makes my point. As does 57% vs 17% black.

[X_Digger]

22. Compared to their percentage of the population, they're under-represented. n/t

[Coventina]

18. There is a problem with men and violence.

"Not all men" of course.

But looking at the statistics of violence of all kinds....it is blatantly obvious.
